Title: A Town Called Lovely
Car broke down
Picturesque 1950's town
Sun shone on
Sun shone so long
In a town
A town called Lovely
The birds they sung succinctly
The gardens hung so neatly
The town hall cryer sang
The reunited lovers pang
In a town
A town called Lovely
We didn't have much money
We lived on milk and honey
The landlady of the Inn
Gave us board and gin
In a town
A town called Lovely
No-one had a phone
Couldn't call back home
Mechanic was away
Tailor so they say
In a town
A town called Lovely
But we didn't want to leave
We learnt to farm and weave
Our worries up and went
It was easy paying rent
In a town
A town called Lovely
The car has rusted over
Growing four leaf clover
Even winter is a delight
With snowballs we laugh and fight
In a town
A town called Lovely
